DAY 27

Trying Something New

I decided to walk today. I started off running, but almost tripped over Tosh and fell on the road. My knees also really hurt - walking seems to be a good idea. I walked 2 1/2 miles - ran about 1/2 a mile. I think it took about an hour...let's face it, my fast walking is just about equal to my slow running. Overall, this is kinder to my knees and easier for Tosh.

DAY 15

RAN: 1 1/2 miles

One-and-a-half miles in 21 minutes...I'm getting there!

I ran without Tosh today, both because he was a bit more wound up than usual and because I ran later than I normally do - I did not want either Tosh to have to deal with the mailman or the mailman to have to deal with Tosh. This was both good and bad - good as I did not have to expend energy getting Toshie back in line and bad as I did not get to slow down here-and-there while I got Toshie back in line.
